Cloudflare Agents deepens long-running support
Cloudflare is pushing Agents toward durable, resumable execution with primitives for long-running work, persistent sessions, and WebSocket-backed state. The goal is to make in-progress agent runs recoverable instead of forcing builders to stitch together recovery, reconnects, and orchestration themselves.
This is Cloudflare leaning into the boring plumbing that makes agents usable in production: state, recovery, and connection continuity. It is less flashy than a model launch, but much more important if you want agents that survive crashes, redeploys, and user re-entry. Durable execution and checkpointing reduce fragility for long runs, WebSocket support and reconnectable sessions keep live work intact, and persistent sessions plus sub-agents suggest Cloudflare wants to own more of the orchestration layer.
